open-in-new
<p>SCXML stands for State Chart XML: State Machine Notation for Control Abstraction. It is an <a href="/facts/XML/clNgUfWk">XML</a>-based <a href="/facts/Markup_language/WwhlNVIu">markup language</a> that provides a generic <a href="/facts/State-machine/GMusWd0a">state-machine</a>-based execution environment based on <a href="/facts/Harel_statechart/XAjvtq7t">Harel statecharts</a>. </p><p>SCXML is able to describe complex <a href="/facts/Finite-state_machine/GMusWd0a">finite-state machines</a>. For example, it is possible to describe notations such as sub-states, parallel states, synchronization, or concurrency, in SCXML. </p>
